Hi Guys, I too am having surgery July 1st (10 days!!! not that I'm counting, LOL) and I am very excited. I started my pre-op diet on friday and so far so good. The first couple days were the worst, and my stomach growls non stop.
My pre op appointments all went good, except I have a mild case of sleep apnea so I'm hoping the pulmonologist clears me before my surgery date. I go see him on the 29th which is cutting it close but my fingers are crossed.
I have been overweight pretty much my whole life, but since I became a single mother my weight has gotten out of hand the past couple years. I can sit here and say that I just want to be skinny and look great in the clothes I buy, but it's not about that. I just want to be healthy and live a long life with my children. It just kills me that I am not able to do alot of things that they want to do because of my weight.
Best of Luck to all us July Banders!! God Bless!
